Patient's question:
I had an ultrasound examination at 45 days of pregnancy. At that time, the fetal heartbeat was not visible, but there was yolk. It was said to be fine. Now it's been 72 days, and I still need to have an ultrasound examination. For the first ultrasound during pregnancy, which department should I register in?Doctor's answer:
Prenatal check-ups are conducted in the obstetrics department. You can register for obstetrics services, attend prenatal check-ups on schedule, and should establish a maternity card. Follow the scheduled check-up times listed on the card to proceed.Around the 60th day of pregnancy, go to the outpatient clinic for a color Doppler ultrasound to confirm whether it is an intrauterine pregnancy and rule out the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. Additionally, check if the fetal bud and heartbeat are normal.
For ultrasounds in the first three months of pregnancy, you need to fast for urine. After the third month of pregnancy, you no longer need to fast for ultrasounds.
